Magnesium for RLS
Merry Christmas! While I've said the below in various Replies, I thought I'd put it in a post. I've been taking at least 400mg a day of magnesium citrate for some years now, since I had it recommended to me by a relative: 600mg a day initially stopped my RLS within days, and 400mg a day (the amount suggested

What first?: Provenge or Nubeqa?
I have not used 2d line AR drugs yet. CRPC just started six months ago. My PSA is below 1. One small, suspected area on last month's PSMA PET scan. That is the same area that looked suspicious on PSMA PET in 2016 and on Axumin in early 2021. I did IADT 2016-2020, with continuous ADT since Jan 2021

Swallowing difficulties with pouch at back of mouth
Hello , wanted to ask if any of you have been told after a barium swallow investigation that you have a pouch at the back of your mouth? I’m waiting to see the gastroenterologist next month. I have had swallowing difficulties for over a year now - particularly tablets and capsules but also fresh fruit

how much gentle iron?
what dose should i start on… i have bought iron bisglycinate 20 mg. But have been recommended 320 mcg ferrous sulphate. So very confused at the different levels. How do these figures relate to each other? And do you have to take gentle iron on an empty stomach? The bottle says to take with food. Any

Alk Phosphate going up after third Radium 223
hello all. Husband dx in 2017 with 489 PSA. So far we’ve done Docetaxel, Xgeva, Zytiga. Currently on Xofigo (Ra 223) it knocked the Alk Ph way down then after the third treatment it went up a few points. Has this happened to anyone? RO suggests doing 4th treatment then PSMA scan to see if there’s

Diazepam/Valium
I was subscribed Valium in the late 1970s & it worked in that it cured my social anxiety & I could live a normal life. I got married, had children & bought a house. Everything was fine apart from the fact I was addicted for over 40 years but as long as I had the tablets, I was happy & content. I managed

valium 2mg for flying with IBS-D
I’ve been prescribed 2mg Valium (diazepam) to help me not lose the plot on upcoming flights, as my IBSD related anxiety has got so much worse since covid lockdowns etc. I’ve always had anxiety about having a flare up whilst travelling but it’s a real problem now. anyhow, 2mg seems a crazy low dose

Help for extreme pain in thighs and arms
I took my last prednisone tablet mid May (GCA diagnosed late April 2019); cortisol test in June was 203 (reference range in Canada is 135-537); 380 in September so my adrenal glands are well on their way to recovery. I have been on Actemra injections since October 2019, now every three weeks (until January

Iron/ferritin deficiency
Hello! Does anyone know how long it might take for ferrous sulphate 200mg 2x to have any effect on fairly severe RLS symptoms if it is caused by iron deficiency? Cheers!

Feel like giving up
Hi all, would really appreciate some input/advice. I have so many ongoing, chronic, worsening symptoms that are really having a significant impact on my ability to lead a somewhat 'normal' life - chronic reflux and stomach issues, lower digestive issues, gynae issues/fibroid, joint stiffness and mild

Unbearable itching! Any ideas to calm it down?
Hello all, I started with ET but now have PV and have been on Peg for about 6 weeks with phlebotomies occasionally. My Hematocrit has gone down but my platelets are going up so the MPN Dr wants me to take Hydroxyurea at 500 2-3 times a week with low dose of Peg at 60. He really wants me back on hydrea

Thank you - ferritin levels. 😀
I just wanted to say Thank You - because of this site, especially Sue and Joolz, my consultant has advised my GP to give me ferrous sulphate every other day and check my ferritin levels in 3 months' time. If my RLS is still bad or ferritin still less than 100-200, they may do an infusion! And I live

Week 9 run 3 - DONE!
Last run of the programme completed this afternoon, in bright sunshine. I'm particularly pleased that I've managed to finish as I originally started the C25K back in May but had to stop as I had injured my back. It would be over 8 weeks before I could begin to run again, starting over at Week 1.

Feeling hopeless
Hi, I’m new here. I’m really struggling. I’ve had issues with anxiety since I was a kid, so anytime I have weird medical symptoms, doctors always blame anxiety first. I know I’m a hypochondriac and I know my anxiety has been really bad lately, but I’ve never had physical symptoms like this before. I’
